Employing superb timber, this 'neat' mahogany table is a wonderful example of Chippendale's utilitarian furniture which, through the sheer quality of materials and execution, is at once simple and distinguished. Chippendale supplied, 'a neat Mahogany 8 leg Table of fine wood', on 9 June 1768 at a cost of £2 2s 0d and a further pair of '2 neat Mahogany Spider leg Tables of good wood', probably similar in form to those at Dumfries House from 1760 although not necessarily by Chippendale.
For a related example, see the spider-leg table sold Christie's London, 31 October 2012, lot 79 (£13,750)
